Angiosperms (flowering plants) are by far the most diverse land plant group with over
300,000 species. The sudden appearance of diverse angiosperms in the fossil record was …

The Ranunculales are a hyperdiverse lineage in many aspects of their phenotype, including
growth habit, floral and leaf morphology, reproductive mode, and specialized metabolism …

Land plants first evolved from freshwater algae, and flowering plants returned to water as
early as the Cretaceous and multiple times subsequently. Alismatales is the largest clade of …

The deciduous broad-leaved forests (DBLFs) cover large temperate and subtropical high-
altitude regions in the Northern Hemisphere. They are home to rich biodiversity, especially …

The early-diverging eudicot family Berberidaceae is composed of a morphologically diverse
assemblage of disjunctly distributed genera long praised for their great horticultural and …

In this study of evolutionary relationships in the subfamily Rubioideae (Rubiaceae), we take
advantage of the off-target proportion of reads generated via previous target capture …

The evolutionary history of Clematis section Tubulosae, an East Asian endemic lineage, has
not been comprehensively studied. In this study, we reconstruct the phylogeny of this section …

Terrestrial orchids are a group of genetically understudied, yet culturally and economically
important plants. The Orchidinae tribe contains many species that produce edible tubers that …

Reconstructing evolutionary trajectories and transitions that have shaped floral diversity
relies heavily on the phylogenetic framework on which traits are modelled. In this study, we …

Clematis is one of the largest genera of Ranunculaceae with many phylogenetic problems
left to be resolved. Clematis species have considerable genome size of more than 7 Gbp …
